Seemed refreshing and not thin after three muscular Cote-Roties. Good complexity that highlights the Syrah notes (65%) up front then eases into the earthy Grenache (35%).

Brilliant. Round and tropical. Surprising acidity. Just lovely.

The description:

A deep ruby-red hue with deep-purple highlights. A distinct touch of blackcurrant fills a rich and explosive nose. A soft palate showing sweetness. A touch of moka, chocolate, adds to the complexity. Well structured tannins enhance the body. Very well-balanced. For drinking now or can hold for 2 to 6.
The opinion:
I would add there is a liquorice note. This is a big wine and needs a big flavoured food dish with it.

Barnyards at first but that blew off to some nice pure deep fruit , Smokey and mesquite notes over cassis flavors. Alive and intense but not too much so. Very good value

Dark chocolate, plum, pomegranate, and grapefruit find on the nose. Oak, venison, turnip, and black pepper on the palate.
